Front

What is the tendency of an object to resist change in motion?

Back

Inertia

Front

What law states that an object at rest will remain at rest and an object in motion will remain in motion unless acted upon by an external force?

Back

Front

How does the force of magnetism change when magnets are closer together?

Back

The force of magnetism is stronger when magnets are closer together.

Front

What is the term for the force that causes an object to accelerate?

Back

Net Force

Front

What is the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration according to Newton's Second Law?

Back

Force equals mass times acceleration (F = ma).
